Some budget airlines charge extra fees when you book a flight online. However, when you book in person, these charges are waived.
LAS VEGAS —
Though this tip can yield savings of nearly $50 on round-trip flights, it also comes with some stipulations, including limited counter hours for some airlines.Once you reach the checkout page while purchasing a flight on suncountry.com, you may notice something called the “Passenger Interface Charge” in the price breakdown. The charge was first introduced in April 2022, and though it may take on various names, it is common among low-cost airlines, said a spokesperson for Sun Country Airlines.
This means that if you purchase one nonstop round-trip ticket, you may be charged $44 on top of the base airfare cost. If you travel with multiple passengers or have layovers, these fees can add up. Per regulations enforced by the U.S. Department of Transportation, airlines must have an option where customers can avoid these charges. This is where buying a ticket in person can be worthwhile.At Allegiant Air, the online booking fee goes by the name of an “Electronic Carrier Usage Charge.” It follows similar rules as Sun Country Airlines: $22 per passenger, per segment to be billed on top of base airfare.
